The wind howled outside the window, signalling the approach of snow.
Xu Jing and Commander Xu were slowly chatting and drinking, until she got Commander Xu completely drunk.
The servant sighed, "Second Miss, Mr. Xu hasn't been drunk in many days."
"I'm drinking with him, and he's happy." Xu Jing was also a bit tipsy. She stood up, and together with the servant, supported Commander Xu upstairs, one on each side.
"Second Miss, are you really going back to the army tomorrow?"
"Mhm."
"Then make time to come home often. With the family going through such a big crisis, Mr. Xu has been in a bad mood, and even his appetite has decreased."
"Okay." Xu Jing covered Commander Xu with a blanket and sighed silently, her brows knotted tightly together.
Father, stray not onto the crooked path. May you be wise to fend for yourself.
In the middle of the night, Commander Xu was awakened by a noisy commotion. He got up and went outside to look.
